Communication ethics is a set of principles that regulate how to communicate politely, courteously, and effectively, which is very important in everyday life, especially in the educational environment. However, communication ethics skills are often not optimally mastered by students due to the lack of interactive and relevant learning media. This research aims to develop innovative role-playing-based learning media designed to improve the communication ethics skills of grade 8 students at MTs Al Azhaar Ummu Suwanah. This research is motivated by the importance of communication ethics skills as one of the basic competencies in learning, which is often poorly facilitated through conventional learning methods. This role-playing media is designed to provide an interactive learning experience through simulating everyday communication situations that are relevant to students' lives. Effectiveness testing was carried out through limited trials and field trials involving 8th grade students as research subjects. Data were collected through observation, and expert validation. The results showed that this role-playing learning media was effective in improving students' communication ethics skills. In addition, this media is also considered attractive, easy to use, and able to create a fun learning atmosphere. Thus, the role-playing board can be an innovative alternative to support the interaction-based learning process and direct practice in the classroom.

A serious problem faced by the Indonesian people is the orientation of the current education system which focuses too much on developing the left brain (cognitive) and pays too little attention to developing the right brain (affective, empathy and feeling). The learning process is passive and rigid, which makes it unpleasant for children. Subjects related to character education (such as character and religion) emphasize the left brain aspect (memorization, or just knowledge) in practice. This can damage children's character and hinder their creativity. In fact, character formation must be carried out systematically and continuously involving aspects of knowledge, feeling, loving and acting. Character formation can be likened to the formation of a person into a body builder (bodybuilder) who requires continuous moral muscle training to become sturdy and strong. Apart from that, the success of character education must also be supported by a good and enjoyable educational environment for children. Character education is needed not only at school, but also at home and in social environments.
